Volume 6 Forgetting the Immortal Journey Chapter 376 The Way of Survival
It was said that he would help guide the workshops to renovate the smelting furnaces, but this matter was not urgent.
After all, each workshop has its own smelting task, more than a hundred workshops, and only after one of the workshops completes the smelting task of a batch of ore, Lao Su will lead Qin Dai to go over to transform the smelting furnace.
It is not so easy to reset the formation inside the smelting furnace.
First of all, it is necessary to use a special formation to close the eye of the earth's core fire, and then remove the old formation in the smelting furnace and rearrange two identical formations. In this way, when smelting ordinary ore, there is no need for special control, as long as the temperature of the two formations is kept consistent.
However, once it encounters the smelting of special minerals such as 'Ice Vein Ore Marrow', the two formations can be controlled separately, so that the core fire in the same smelting furnace has different temperatures, so as to achieve the best smelting effect.
After Qin Dai helped set up a new formation in the smelting furnace, he would reopen the Eye of the Earth's Core Fire and debug the new formation, until the new formation was no problem, and he would teach the key points of the operation of the new formation to the craftsmen in the workshop.
The transformation time of each smelting furnace can be as short as half a day or as long as one day.
In the past month, intermittently, he has only completed the transformation of more than a dozen smelting furnaces.
Although Qin Dai's strength is good, because of his own experience, his formation attainments are very ordinary. This time, I had the opportunity to repeatedly arrange and test the formation again and again, but the level of array casting has improved a lot.
Now that Qin Dai has cast some small mantras and spells, he can already do it as he wishes, and he doesn't need to recite the mantra as before before he can release it. This can also be regarded as a small windfall.
The deep valley where the 'smelting place' of the Forging Workshop is located is called the Valley of Refining.
When Qin Dai didn't go out to renovate the smelting furnace, he lived in the Valley of Refining, in his own exclusive courtyard.
Now. His small courtyard was very lively.
"Dumb, you dare to let Miss Ben pigeon, I came to you yesterday, and I said that I was too tired to renovate the smelting furnace and wanted to rest for a few days, and I was kind enough to come to see you today. You went out again, obviously deliberately avoiding me!"
The door of the small courtyard where Qin Dai lived was wide open, and a beautiful girl was clasping her hands on her hips, scolding angrily.
"Yu'er, don't mess around, you're screaming and scolding here, isn't it a joke?"
It was Qin Yu, the second lady of the Qin family, who was scolding Qin Dai, and her own sister Qin Fang was reminding her on the side. These two sisters. It seems that they all came to find Qin Dai.
"I don't care!" Qin Yu pouted her lips savagely: "Dumb, he was originally my attendant, and it is normal for me to come to him, but why are you there, sister, are you very familiar with Dumb?" Don't forget, my father has already agreed to the He family's proposal, although you have not yet married, you are already the daughter-in-law of the He family. Even you are not afraid of being gossiped, so what am I afraid of?"
"Yu'er, you. It's really getting more and more ashamed!" Qin Fang's face flushed from Qin Yu's choking and pointed at her. Angry and anxious, he stomped his foot.
Listening to the two sisters arguing, it seemed that Qin Yu came to see Qin Dai today, but found that Qin Dai was not at home, but his sister Qin Fang was.
Qin Yu has loved to compare with her sister Qin Fang since she was a child, as long as her sister Qin Fang has something, she must pester her father Qin An to give her a copy. If there are any good things, she always has to grab them with her sister.
Now for this Qin Dai, there is a little bit of jealousy between the two sisters.
Just as the sisters were arguing, a stiff old man was smiling. Holding a big broom in his hand, he swept the dust on the ground while coming from a distance.
"Ahh ”
Seeing Lao Su sweeping the ground over, the two sisters, who were still arguing just now, quieted down at the same time.
What's even more surprising is that both of them stepped forward honestly, saluted Lao Su, and said crisply: "Su Lao is good!"
This Lao Su is actually the most trusted friend of the earth immortal Qin An, and Qin An is kind to Lao Su, and Lao Su has no relatives and family anyway, so he lives in seclusion in this refining valley and helps the Qin family.
Although Qin An persuaded Lao Su to come out to help him several times, Lao Su had no choice but because he had a special experience, he would rather live in seclusion in this deep valley than re-enter the world. In the end, Qin An had no choice but to let him go. Few people know Lao Su's identity, but Qin Fang, Qin Yu, Qin Liufeng and other descendants of the Qin family are still clear.
"Okay, okay, hey, it turned out to be Fang'er and Yu'er, you two little girls, you haven't come to see the old man and me for a while, it's rare to be so kind today......" Lao Su looked at the two with a smile.
Qin Fang and Qin Yu couldn't help blushing.
Seeing this, Lao Su put on a look of sudden realization: "It's hard that you didn't come to see the old man today? Isn't this Qin Dai's small courtyard...... Oh, I see. ”
"Old Su, Dumb used to be my attendant, I just happened to pass by, and I came to him when I remembered something. You are not allowed to make fun of me on purpose......" Qin Yu hurriedly stepped forward and hugged Lao Su's arm, his tone full of coquettishness.
Qin Fang was also busy and helped Yuan Li: "Old Su, we originally came to visit your old man's house, but we just remembered that Qin Dai was also here, so we came over to have a look." ”
Lao Su looked like I understood, nodded and said, "Okay, two little girls, I don't understand what you are thinking?" But Qin Dai is not in the Refining Valley, if you want to find him, you can go to the 'Archive' to have a look." He has been going whenever he has time lately. ”
The two sisters Qin Fang and Qin Yu shook their heads in unison: "Since it's not there, it's not a big deal anyway." ”
The two didn't expect each other to say the same thing as themselves, so they immediately glanced at each other, and wanted to wait for each other to finish speaking first, but after waiting for a while, neither of the sisters spoke, so the two of them said in unison: "Let's go back first." ”
When the two sisters found out that they were saying the same thing at the same time, they immediately glared at each other angrily, and the funny appearance of the two caused Lao Su to laugh.
The two of them said a brief goodbye to Lao Su and prepared to leave.
After Qin Yu flew up, he remembered something. also specially begged Lao Su: "Old Su, don't tell Qin Dai about what we have been here." ”
"Okay! Although my old man has a bad memory, he is not a talkative person, so you can go with confidence. Lao Su beckoned, and watched the two girls fly out of the Valley of Refining.
When the Qin sisters came to find Qin Dai. As Lao Su said, he was browsing some information on immortal minerals and spars in the 'Archive'.
The 'Archive' is a huge stadium-shaped building, and within the entire building, it is divided into many different areas, and these areas contain ore samples of different levels, books of refining immortal artifacts with different degrees of secrecy, and so on.
Depending on the individual's permissions, the craftsmen in the 'Forging Immortal Workshop' can enter different areas to watch and learn.
Because Qin Dai is a newcomer, many of these areas are forbidden to enter. Only a few areas that are relatively ordinary, and the content can also be regarded as common knowledge in the fairy world, can he go in to watch and learn. These areas are usually not visited by craftsmen, because the knowledge inside is too basic, and other immortals are already familiar with it, so naturally they will not waste time watching.
But Qin Dai is different, he has only been in the immortal realm for a short time. And. In the past, when he talked with Xuan Yun, Yu Kite, Zhong Yang, Tian Lao and other immortal masters, these were too ordinary knowledge. No one specifically mentioned it to him.
For him, everything in the fairy world is new.
Therefore, although most of the areas in the 'Archive' he are not qualified to enter, he is already hungry for the areas that he can enter only at the moment. I studied very seriously.
This is an empty and huge room, and in the room there are beautiful spars that shine brightly, and these spars, like strange lamps, reflect a vague and beautiful light throughout the room. It's like thousands of stars, strolling around.
Qin Dai slowly walked through these suspended spars, as if walking in the starry sky. Raising his hand and lightly touching one of the spars, he realized that the spar was not real at all, but was actually just a phantom composed of energy.
When his hand touched the hedron phantom, a sudden stream of information passed from his fingertips to his mind.
"The Immortal Sound Stone, a higher level of energy spar than the Spirit Stone, is produced in the place where the aura of the fairy world gathers, and it is the circulating currency at the level of the fairy world. The spar contains a very pure immortal qi, which can be absorbed and restored by the immortals, and can be used to provide energy for the immortal array, which can be used as a material for smelting immortal weapons. The energy in the spar is triggered by a special method, which can produce a wonderful and strange music, so it is named the fairy sound stone. According to the concentration of fairy qi contained in the spar, the fairy sound stone is divided into high-grade fairy sound stone, middle grade fairy sound stone, and lower grade fairy sound stone, and the exchange ratio between them is ......"
In this room of the 'Archive', all the forms of minerals and spars are phantoms made of energy, and once someone touches these phantoms with their hands, they can read the information contained inside.
This method seems to be remarkable, but in fact, the principle is very simple, and even mortal realm cultivators can do it.
Just like when Xuanji Zhenren met Shen Chong for the first time, he was able to project the information he wanted to convey into Shen Chong's mind by pointing at Shen Chong's forehead.
The Qin family just used the Immortal Realm Formation to maintain the existence of these energies all the time.
Qin Dai stretched out his hand to another dark blue crystal beautiful spar suspended in mid-air, this kind of spar, he had seen not long ago.
"Ice vein marrow, a precious fairy ore, is produced in the deep sea or ice depths of 10,000 meters in low temperatures and severe cold. The Ice Vein Mineral Pith contains very pure water attribute energy and ice power, which is an important material for refining special immortal weapons, and can also be refined with other eighteen materials to become the 'Ice Pith Awakening Divine Pill'......
"Fire dust black gold sand, a unique mineral in the mortal space under the fairy world - Aden realm, with a melting point of 1,200 degrees, after melting, it is a black liquid with golden stripes, which can be used to depict the immortal array on the weapon, and has a relatively good effect on improving the power of the immortal weapon and amplifying the formation attack......"
"Awakening incense, a crystalline mineral formed by the carbonization of fairy wood, is abundant in the extreme west of the fairy world, the color is mostly earthy brown, can be refined into fine mineral crystals, mostly used to inlay the handle of the fairy vessel, has the effect of refreshing the mind and awakening the mind............"
Strange hedros that are suspended.
Qin Dai pointed his finger at one, and he could instantly know the efficacy and characteristics of this ore, and so on.
Here, he lingered, immersed in a world of countless exotic mineral crystals, even in the same room. Someone has been paying attention to his affairs and has not noticed.
In this large room, the collection is the most common and common spars and minerals in the fairy world, and the number is only more than a thousand kinds. This can only be regarded as a drop in the bucket among the countless types of ores in the fairy world.
In fact, the Qin family still has a lot of precious information stored in other rooms, but unfortunately Qin Dai's qualifications are not enough. Visitors are not allowed to enter.
Even so, Qin Dai didn't care at all, he just took the trouble to walk through the room, reading the information in the light cluster one by one.
He seems to have a natural passion and interest in new things. These knowledge, which were very ordinary in the eyes of other immortals, were never in contact with Qin Dai.
Qin Dai spent a day and a half, and it wasn't until he had browsed all the information in this room that he was reluctant to go back to his residence in the Valley of Refining.
From this time on, Qin Dai and Lao Su went to renovate the smelting furnace. As soon as I have time, I will run to the 'archives' and 'exhibition places'.
Unfortunately, his authority was always limited, so he quickly took a look at the contents.
Subsequently, he became familiar with some immortal craftsmen in the 'smelting place' and 'forging place', in addition to often asking some questions from these craftsmen, occasionally, Qin Dai would be allowed to enter some workshops in the 'forging place'. Go and watch the craftsmen forge.
The refining of immortal artifact embryos, which was boring in the eyes of outsiders, made Qin Dai happy in it.
Sisters Qin Fang and Qin Yu would occasionally come over to find Qin Dai.
On the surface. Qin Fang was to see if Qin Dai was adapting to the work of the 'Forging Immortal Workshop'. And her sister Qin Yu pretends to be a dumb master, and uses the reason to monitor whether Qin Dai is lazy.
In short, the two sisters would come to the Valley of Refining once or twice a month to find Qin Dai.
The sisters' thoughts are only afraid that anyone with a discerning eye can see it.
Qin Dai also has a headache for the two sisters, and they usually hide when they can. I really couldn't hide it, so I scribbled it.
However, his attitude towards Qin Fang was obviously better, which also made Qin Yu very angry.
Time passes.
On this day, Qin Dai sat alone on the roof, holding the piece of warm jade that he had been carrying with him. While gently stroking the jade in his palm like a lover, he looked up at the starry sky. The deep and bright eyes are filled with stars, as if the whole sky is contained in a small pupil.
The night wind swept into the deep valley, driving away some of the surrounding heat, and also making Qin Dai's mood more plain and clear.
Now, it has been a full year since he joined the 'Forging Immortal Workshop'.
In the past year, Qin Dai can be regarded as having a relatively in-depth understanding and understanding of the entire 'Forging Immortal Fang'.
He found that nominally, Qin An, the head of the family, was the real owner of the 'Forging Immortal Workshop', but in fact, now all matters of the 'Forging Immortal Workshop' are decided by Qin Liufeng alone, and Qin An, the head of the family, never asks.
This is also in line with the arrangement of the two of them, Qin An's main and Qin Liufeng's main interior.
The name of 'Forging Immortal Fang' sounds like a workshop or shop, but it is actually an independent institution within the Qin family, and it is the core institution of the entire Qin family. All the purpose of the operation of the 'Forging Immortal Workshop' is to refine more rare and precious embryos.
Through the understanding of the 'Forging Immortal Fang', Qin Dai also discovered that this earth immortal Qin An is not only a smart operator, but also an ambitious person.
Under his delegated management, everything is in order, and the entire operation has a strict set of rules and procedures. I heard that Qin An has often practiced in retreat for nearly a thousand years, and it seems that he wants to go further in his cultivation.
The Qin family was able to gain a foothold in the immortal world by refining immortal artifact embryos, constantly accumulating wealth and expanding influence. Qin An himself immersed himself in cultivation again, wanting to improve his strength. In the end, the Qin family will definitely embark on the road of hegemony to expand their territory.
Such a model is also the growth and survival mode of all large, medium and small forces in the fairy world.
However, Qin Dai has some different views on these.
He believes that for a force to gain a foothold in the immortal world, it is enough to have a unique skill like the Qin family.
However, if this force wants to develop further, it is not enough to accumulate wealth or operate well. The real strong people speak by strength.
In the fairy world, how much strength you have, how much wealth you get, this is the way to survive.
Just like a force like the Qin family, once it encounters a big force with an immortal emperor-level master, it has to bow down and be a subordinate. In the face of absolute strength, one's own family and power will not become a help, but a fetter.
Only by knowing how to let go can we truly achieve success.
The Qin family is the fetters of the earth immortal Qin An.
With the big burden of the Qin family, even if Qin An breaks through to the Heavenly Immortal Stage, the Qin family will become his biggest weakness.
But I am different.
What was his name before, and what experiences did he have? Qin Dai couldn't remember any of this.
But he knew very well in his heart that his goal was not to survive, but to fight.
I don't know where I came from, but I know where I'm going.
Now the turtle is shrinking in this small Qin family, hiding in this deep valley, in order to take off in the future.
"Soon, I'll be going against the wind, and sooner or later I'll be at the top of the world. ”
Qin Dai clenched the jade in his hand fiercely, and his heart was full of pride...... (To be continued.) )
